Stars Go Dim Collaborates With Richard Marx

Joey writes with Richard Marx!

Joey Avalos had the amazing opportunity of writing with legendary songwriter Richard Marx out in his Chicago home earlier this month. Richard Marx has written over 13 #1 hits and has sold over 30 million records. Joey said, “Well, I can check something off my bucket list. I had the privilege of writing with one of my all-time favorite songwriters.”. They co-wrote a song called “Life Without You” which we all think is a hit. Read Joey’s full account of the experience in the www.starsgodim.com journal.
